    Superb haul Sentai! Yeah, I head last Saturday while the event was going on that Jack wanted to go but didn't know he actually was going to attend. For you hero's of cybertron optimus, if you soak the price tag in lighter fluid it will loosen the glue and you can left it off, with out damaging the card. I would really like to meet Jack again.

    so far, I can't seem to find Siege Leader Astrotrain on Amazon, looks like i'll have to look for it somewhere else, or it hasn't been released yet? If Jack Angel does another appearance, i'll also have to see about getting a Smokescreen signed by Jack Angel as well, if I get the chance to meet him again, and save up to get an MP Ramjet. Also, Michael Bell was originally gonna show up at Nerd Expo, but he had to cancel, Jack Angel was the one who took his place.

    I don’t think Siege Astrotrain has been released in the US yet. Another option for you is that Walmart will have a g1 reissue Astrotrain in 2020. MP smokescreen and ramjet signed would be awesome!

    it reminds me, I don't believe the late Robert Stack ever signed any Transformers memorabilia right?

    Without a database of every item ever autographed, we can't be certain of what does and doesn't exist. So it's possible but I would guess unlikely.

    So I've heard a rumor that there is 1 Orson Welles autograph on a piece of Unicron character art work. So maybe?

    Again if it would be possible to catalog everyone's autographs we would know what is out there and who its caretaker is. My fear is something amazing like this exists and only 1 person knows about it and someday it will be lost to time forever if we don't have a database.

    Have you considered investing in posters, packaging, et al. to have signed in lieu of loose figures? I'm not knocking on you for having VOs sign your old G1 lads, I just find it a little weird, being that I usually have whoever I meet at cons sign an 8x10 from their table or something flat I brought, like a book, a VHS box, or a game case.

    EDIT: Saw another post of yours showing more of your signatures. Never mind, you do you!

    Although not Robert Stack, I did find this gem. So who knows maybe something exists. Robert Stack did go on a small promotional tour for the 86 movie maybe something transformers related has been signed by him. Anything is possible.

    Sad, sad, sad. Unfortunate, too, that he never got to do a con. I'm happy that much of the G1 cast got to learn firsthand, through BotCon and especially TFCon, that their contributions haven't been forgotten over time and that their characters and performances are still very much loved.

    Another sweet TFCON haul tbs! Good to see Tracks and Cosmos signed by Michael McConnohie, he did such a great job portraying both characters in the g1 cartoon and gave them so much personality. That movie vinyl album is sick, gotta at least get Stan Bush and Weird Al's signatures on it as well! Nice Brian Dobson find, I haven't seen his name appear as a guest of a convention lately!

    I think Brian's last show was Powercon 2017, but you already knew that lol. That was the year before I started tracking appearances and I haven't seen him pop up these past 2 years. maybe he and his brothers will make appearances during the 2020 (crossing fingers).

    That Powercon show in 2017 was the peak for voice actor guests for them, they haven't had any in the last two years!

    Had fun at Reno Pop Culture Con over the weekend in Reno, Nevada. I think this was their first ever show, it had a good number of guests and the dealer room itself was large but not too many merchandise sellers and the middle section of the room was somewhat empty. I didn't gamble while I was there (the convention center was right next to the Atlantis Casino & Hotel) but instead got some autographs!

    It was good to see Charlet Chung again, the first time was at Kraken Con a few years ago. She's the voice of D.Va on the video game Overwatch. Security was very tight for this show and they almost did not let me bring in the Nerf version of her gun from the game. It was convention policy not to allow firing replica weapons into the show and I had to promise not to open the package inside - not that I would have anyway :)  She also signed the Figma action figure.

    [​IMG]

    I've met Tara Strong a few times now, but on this occasion had some Rikku merch from the Final Fantasy video games for her to sign to go along with the Yuna and Paine autographs I got at Sac Anime earlier this year to complete the trio.

    [​IMG]

    First time meeting Alan Tudyk, glad to meet another cast member of Firefly (need to get Nathan Fillion's autograph some day!). Alan signed a Funko Firely Legacy Hoban Washburne and Star Wars: The Black Series Rogue One K-2S0 figures for me:

    [​IMG]

    Katie Leigh the voice of Sheila from the old Dungeons and Dragons cartoon, on the Iron Studios statue of her character. The company also made statues of the rest of the party as well as the main villain Venger that I would have love to someday get Peter Cullen's signature on!

    [​IMG]

    Many thanks to turbobluestreak for letting me know about Laurie O Brien's appearance at the show. She was the voice of Astoria Carlton-Ritz from the classic G1 Transformers episode "The Girl Who Loved Powerglide" I brought some prints for her and it was such a pleasure to meet her!

    [​IMG]

    This was my last major convention for the year, hope you fellow autograph hounds had a good 2019 haul and an even better 2020!

    Nice Haul! Did Laurie O Brien have any memories of working on "The girl who loved Powerglide" and did she mention if she's ever signed anything for this character before? I've got one last convention planned for 2019 and 2020 is shaping up to be a good year, Frank and Peter are doing more conventions next year and looks like we will be blessed with another 3 TFCON's as well.

    This may well have been her first show. She didn’t really have any merch such as prints of her own and borrowed some from her Muppet Babies castmate Katie Leigh. All she said about her time on Transformers was that it was a long time ago :D . Hopefully she’ll be a guest at a TFCon soon so the TF fans can show her some appreciation for her contributions to the fandom!
